A callback to the PS3 early days.
Hey if it's good enough for From software...

Oh for the names?
Ogre Tactics is the first one, a series of earlier tactical games (started on the snes maybe?)
Shadow Tactics: Blades of the Shogun is the other. It's actually more like the Commandos games, a kind of overhead team stealth sim.
And I was just joking but if you're on a tictac roll please, by all means, help yourself!
Lol, I love this gimmick! Next up, enormous Ogre Tictacs? Perhaps Shadow Tictacs: Mints of the Shogun?
It was full of fresh ideas when it first came out, like a minty cool breeze
This one was already up there on the surreality meter, and I love how much taking the cat out amplifies that most of the time. It's great how it makes less and less sense the longer you think about, anti-fridge logic. What's better about "it" than a caddie? Do they only have one club? Do you even need a caddie if you only have 1 club? How is fish swinging the club? Wait is the bowl swinging it, does the fish pilot it? Is the fish psychic, is the bowl psychic? Wait, the golfers though, is this their only thought on the matter? Is it calling them bro or is it merely "bro"ing generally, or is it like a pokemon and that's all they say? 🤯
If you revisit the clinic frequently, Iosevka has a noticeable personality shift at one point. She gets replaced by a Choir member impersonating her, who is running bizarre experiments. When you get into the back of the clinic, that's what you find.
Tap for spoiler
In addition to the real Iosevka being turned into a kindred, the imposter will also transform any civilians you direct to her. This can be useful with the guy in the woods who is actually a beast in disguise and will kill everyone in the church if you send him there. Sending him to the clinic is easier than fighting him too.
Amused that kenopsia describes what the Zeds call feeling liminal because of "liminal spaces / backrooms" memes.
Definitely germanic. Google translate roughly figures it as "farmer wall sadness" which, I recognized sadness but not sure how the rest of that fits in. Something like a sadness that causes you to grow walls I guess.
Anyway, I've heard of a couple of these, and I know that all words are made up, but these sound especially invented.
Someone shared this on Mastodon so I'll just repost my thoughts from there. (Bonus for Lemmy, I was forced to squeeze all my thoughts into 500 characters, so this is the most succinct I've been on this site!)
Pretty incredible how little people seem to understand these. For one thing, every method other than waterfall is a subtype of agile methodology. The major distinction is that waterfall has a series of phases from design through building, testing, and delivery that attempts to plan the whole project up front. Agile methods focus on smaller iteration cycles with frequent, partial deliverables.
Something like kanban is designed for continuous delivery: we want to go to mars weekly.
LEAN development is a scam though, that one is accurate.
Even the hyperreal numbers *R, which include infinitesimals, define 1 == .999...
I dunno, maybe trying to revive your multi-player shooter franchise into one of the most monopolized, overexposed genres in gaming history is kind of a high-risk move with little potential for returns. Kind of like trying to make a WoW clone while WoW was at its peak, which dozens of companies did and then all went out of business.
Damn, it's almost like making a game that requires a million active players at all times, when you have no name presence or existing player base to draw upon, is kind of a stupid terrible business decision.
I'm no business or gaming genius, but I feel like I would have done something a little safer and more sustainable. Maybe use your Starseige IP to make a single-player focused mecha game? Haven't had one of those in a while. The last one was... Armored Core 6? One of the best selling and most critically well received games of last year. Yeah, who'd want to tap into that market with a brand new mecha game to ride on the still hungering appetites of AC6 players?
No no,, Better stick to making another fortnight clone, that certainly hasn't burned anyone (including themselves!!!) before.

Seriously! Thanks to all the meme makers out there for supporting Lemmy/Kbin/etc and keeping the alternatives to the corporate internet alive and fun!
This old meme format popped into my head, but honestly I was lost on what the best punchline would be.

Oh yeah, my b, thanks for the correction
